Abstract
This seminar summarises PhD research that develops a methodology for scalable neuromorphic control, linking the modelling of individual neuromorphic elements to the design of large event-based control networks. At the element level, it introduces a kernel-based framework for learning fading-memory conductance dynamics from data while preserving causality, memristive structure, and time-scale separation. At the network level, it develops rebound Winner-Take-All motifs that unify rhythmic generation and discrete decision-making in a hierarchical architecture. The framework is demonstrated through a neuromorphic controller for a snake robot with layers for actuation, coordination, and supervisory switching.
